Aerodynamic Shape Design of a Suicidal Reconnaissance Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
This research primarily focuses on the preliminary design of the pneumatic shape for a portable and foldable inspection drone.The initial phase involves overall design considerations,including the layout scheme,folding mechanism,and general configuration of the drone.Furthermore,a detailed aerodynamic design and selection process is undertaken for the wings.In the analysis and comparison of two-dimensional aerodynamic characteristics,we have opted for NACA series wing profiles,namely NACA 0012,NACA 2412,and Eppler 387.Comparative results indicate that,during cruising conditions,the Eppler 387 wing profile exhibits sufficient lift while maintaining lower resistance,enabling optimal performance of the drone under various flight conditions.
